Ok ... it's been a while, i may be a bit rusty, but here goes:

Of the 100 Themes challenge, here is #31. Flowers!

I've had this image in my head since i watched the Doors Movie for the first time in years, possibly last year or the year before, when it started being sold on special DVD. There was a random scene of some dancing hippies, and there was this one guy with a huge beard with flowers poked into it. I instantly thought, "I HAVE to draw that guy for the Flowers theme!"
So thoughts started churning and bubbling and boiling, and he became a hippy faery, and i wanted a dancing hippy faery chick, too, so i had that pose in mind as well.

But since the first time the idea hit my head, i never had any confidence that i could do it.
But with my simplified colouring style of late, as well as my new re-discovery of the wonders of drawing on printer-paper, i finally had the nerve to draw it!

For those of you who remember i was looking for male nude stock photos, his was the pose i was looking for - but i could never find it. I decided to say screw it, and just draw it without reference - i wish i had used a reference, though. Sitting cross-legged is always difficult to draw for me ... i never know where to put the legs, and the hips in proportion to the torso, and all that - but it ain't too bad, i suppose.
And how about that, a guy that doesn't look exactly like me!

Anyhoo, how d'you like?

There once was a time when matters were settled by gun, blade or fists. The world has moved on, and my kind are fadding away.

When I hear someone say they give "110%" to whatever they're doing, it makes me feel good inside, because I know I'm not as big a moron as that person is.
